MANCHESTER, N.H. (AP) — New Hampshire’s attorney general’s office says a man has been killed in an officer-involved shooting with police and Drug Enforcement Administration agents at a hotel. Two people remain barricaded in a first-floor room.
Assistant Attorney General Ben Agati identified the man killed as 51-year-old Stephen Marshall, of Manchester, in a news conference early Thursday.
Agati says the shooting happened about 7:30 p.m. Wednesday at the Quality Inn in Manchester, near Interstate 293 in a busy area that includes a shopping mall.
Agati says Marshall had a gun in his hand and “engaged” with DEA agents and police. Marshall was pronounced dead at a hospital.
Police had evacuated the hotel and a nearby restaurant.
Officials say there is still an active standoff going on between officers and the two people barricaded in the hotel room as of Thursday morning.
